Make sure you check the sticker (there should be one) for the timings and speed if you're ripping the memory out of your current computer.

yeah I'm pretty sure there is stickers on them my current desktop is basically stock the gfx card is the only thing that's been added since it was bought.
I was planning on getting some new memory later since I was expecting the case to get here later in the month so I've been caught off guard a bit.

How much memory do you have at the moment? I don't recall.

I just checked I have 16gb 2x8gb pc3-12800. I thought I only had 8gb

If the timings aren't total crap that ought to be livable without needing to purchase anything else.

I tried looking it up but can't seem to find the brand.

The timings should be on the sticks. If not that then you could check the BIOS/UEFI and see if it's listed somewhere.

the info I posted previously is the only info I got off the sticks themselves, I did check the bios but the only info on the memory was the size.

it's here it's a little bigger than I expected and I didn't realize it didn't have a card reader so I'll have to get a cheap usb one.

I wish for some rain. This heatwave has been awful.

Remember to be careful mounting the heat sink to the board due to the damaged leg.

Andy, your genius makes your megalomania warranted. Now upload a sandwich for me, I'm hungry.

I feel for ya. we've gotten a decent amount of rain lately we could have used it earlier in the summer but I'm not going to complain.

as of this moment I'm close to done. the board cpu and fan are in the case I just have to screw the psu down then get stuff connected. do you know what that bridge card that came with the board is for?

[Grouch]

the last one is just a size comparison to my old desktop. I'm glad I couldn't afford a full tower this thing dwarfs my monitor it even makes my 32" tv look small.

Got all the legs through the MB mounting holes without too much trouble ?

yes, had a little issue with them coming loose when i had to take the board out because I forgot to put the back panel on then I made sure the fan legs were re-seated properly. the legs could have been better designed.
I got everything hooked up I powered it on but I wasn't getting any video I tried my gfx card and the boards dvi connector i didn't try the vga though, I've been taking a bit of a break from it to do some other things.
